FC Richmond is pleased to offer TOPSoccer (The Outreach Program for Soccer) for young athletes with physical or developmental disabilities. This free program is designed to enable all children the opportunity to play soccer in an environment that is safe, fun, supportive and inclusive. 

Differentiators of TOPSoccer:

• BUDDIES – Each participant is assigned a volunteer, trained ‘Buddy’. This Buddy works with their player individually and makes sure they are safe, engaged, supported, and having fun. 

• COACHES – TOPSoccer coaches and administrators will receive USYS education and certification training that assists them in successfully delivering the program. In addition to providing coaching strategies and tactics specifically for TOPSoccer athletes in mind, the training provides guidance on how to modify typical soccer practice activities so everyone can be successful.

NEW!! This year we will host a winter indoor season and a spring season.
